Ben,
That is good news :)
I've already setup compression on the server side, at least if enabling
mod_deflate for my virtual host is all that's needed.
I've logged the compression ratio towards my IE that does support deflate
but there is no ratio logged (only a - token where there is suppose to be
one).
That's why I thought the part in the issue where compression was turned
of in neon, never got reversed.
httpd config:
<VirtualHost *:80>
<snip>
<Location /svn>
DAV svn
SVNPath /usr/subversion/repos
SVNIndexXSLT /svnindex.xsl
# Turn on compression using mod_deflate
# Insert filter
SetOutputFilter DEFLATE
# DAV clients usually handles compressed request bodies as well.
SetInputFilter DEFLATE
# Netscape 4.x has some problems...
BrowserMatch ^Mozilla/4 gzip-only-text/html
# Netscape 4.06-4.08 have some more problems
BrowserMatch ^Mozilla/4\.0[678] no-gzip
# MSIE masquerades as Netscape, but it is fine
BrowserMatch \bMSIE !no-gzip !gzip-only-text/html
# NOTE: Due to a bug in mod_setenvif up to Apache 2.0.48
# the above regex won't work. You can use the following
# workaround to get the desired effect:
#BrowserMatch \bMSI[E] !no-gzip !gzip-only-text/html
# Don't compress images
SetEnvIfNoCase Request_URI \.(?:gif|jpe?g|png)$ no-gzip dont-vary
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Lkproi1 Auth"
AuthUserFile /etc/subpass
Require valid-user
</Location>
</VirtualHost>
Result on the deflate_log:
"GET /svn/trunk/MontgomeryClient/Nicke_Test.txt HTTP/1.1" 148 (-)
"Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.0; .NET CLR 1.1.4322; .NET

I'll try the http-compression in TSVN server file.
Did not know that it needed to be turned on.
Should it not be on by default?
Anyway, thank you very much for taking your time to answer!
